1 mole of H2 gas is contained in a box of volume V = 1.00 m3 at T = 300K. The gas is heated to a temperature of T = 3000K and the gas gets converted to a gas of hydrogen atoms. The final pressure would be (considering all gases to be ideal)
(a) Same as the pressure initially
(b) 2 times the pressure initially
(c) 10 times the pressure initially
(d) 20 times the pressure initially

(c) 10 times the pressure initially
(d) 20 times the pressure initially
This is a multiple choice answer as classified in NCERT Exemplar
(d) When number of molecules breaks then number of moles would become double.

P where n is the number of moles and T is temperature of ideal gas
As gases breaks number of moles becomes twcice of initial so n2 =2n1
= 20
p2=20p1
so 20 tim
Volume versus temperature graphs for a given mass of an ideal gas are shown in Fig. at two different values of constant pressure. What can be inferred about relation between p1 & p2 ?

(a) p1 > p2
(b) p1 = p2
(c) p1 < p2
(d) Data is insufficient.

(a) Pressure is inversely proportional to slope
So
So p1 > p2
A cylinder containing an ideal gas is in vertical position and has a piston of mass M that is able to move up or down without friction (Fig). If the temperature is increased

(a) Both p and V of the gas will change.
(b) Only p will increase according to Charle’s law.
(c) V will change but not p.
(d) p will change but not V.

(c) The pressure inside the gas will be

P= pa+Mg/A
A= area of piston
Pa= atmospheric pressure
Mg = weight of piston
When temperature is increases
pV=nRT so volume increases at constant pressure.
Boyle’s law is applicable for an
(a) Adiabatic process.
(b) Isothermal process.
(c) Isobaric process.
(d) Isochoric process.
Boyle’s law is applicable for an
(a) Adiabatic process.
(b) Isothermal process.
(c) Isobaric process.
(d) Isochoric process.
This is a multiple choice answer as classified in NCERT Exemplar
(b) Boyle's law is applicable when temperature is constant
PV=nRT=constant
PV= constant
So pressure is inversely proportional to volume.
So process is called isothermal process.
1 mole of an ideal gas is contained in a cubical volume V, ABCDEFGH at 300 K (Fig). One face of the cube (EFGH) is made up of a material which totally absorbs any gas molecule incident on it. At any given time,

(a) The pressure on EFGH would be zero
(b) The pressure on all the faces will the equal
(c) The pressure of EFGH would be double the pressure on ABCD
(d) The pressure on EFGH would be half that on ABCD

(d) In an ideal gas when a molecules collides elastically with a wall, the momentum transferred to each molecule will be twice the magnitude of its normal momentum. For the face EFGH, it transfer only half of that.
A cubic vessel (with faces horizontal + vertical) contains an ideal gas at NTP. The vessel is being carried by a rocket which is moving at a speed of 500m s-1 in vertical direction. The pressure of the gas inside the vessel as observed by us on the ground
(a) Remains the same because 500ms-1 is very much smaller than Vrms of the gas.
(b) Remains the same because motion of the vessel as a whole does not affect the relative motion of the gas molecules and the walls.
(c) Will increase by a factor equal to ( where Vrms was the original mean square velocity of the gas.
(d) Will be different on the top wall and bottom wall of the vessel.

(b) As the motion of the vessel as a whole does not affect the relative motion of the gas molecules with respect to the walls of the vessel, hence pressure of the gas inside the vessel, as conserved by us, on the ground remains the sam
An insulated container containing monoatomic gas of molar mass m is moving with a velocity Vo . If the container is suddenly stopped, find the change in temperature.
An insulated container containing monoatomic gas of molar mass m is moving with a velocity Vo . If the container is suddenly stopped, find the change in temperature.
This is a short answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar
According to kinetic interpretation of temperature, absolute temperature of a given sample of a gas is proportional to total translational kinetic energy of its molecule.
Hence any change in absolute temperature of a gas will contrib
Calculate the number of degrees of freedom of molecules of hydrogen in 1 cc of hydrogen gas at NTP.
Calculate the number of degrees of freedom of molecules of hydrogen in 1 cc of hydrogen gas at NTP.
This is a short answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar
Volume occupied by 1 mole = 1mole of the gas at NTP= 22400mL=22400cc
So number of molecules in 1cc of hydrogen=
H2 is a diatomic gas, having a total of 5 degrees of freedom
So total degrees possesed by all the molecules

(a) the number of atoms of helium in the balloon
(b) the total internal energy of the system.
This is a short answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar
Number of helium = 5
T=7oC=7+273=280K
(a) hence number of atoms = number of moles Avogadro's number
= atoms
(b) now average kinetic energy per molecule = 3/2 KBT
= total internal energy
= number of atoms

When air is pumped into a cycle tyre the volume and pressure of the air in the tyre both are increased. What about Boyle’s law in this case?
This is a short answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar
When air is pumped, more molecules are pumped and boyle's law is staed for situation where number of molecules remains constant . in this case as the number of air molecules keep increases, hence mass change. Boyle's law is only app
